Awesome.

What is NOT awesome are the posts on the university subreddit.

"At the George Washington University Gaza Solidarity Encampment today, the protesters held a "People's Tribunal" where they put President Ellen Granberg, Provost Christopher Bracey, the Board of Trustees, @GWPolice, and many others on trial."

"Guillotine, Guillotine, Guillotine, Guillotine"

"Calling for the execution of university officials is where free speech ends. Whoever led these chants should be expelled and face legal consequences. Zero tolerance for that behavior."

A more effective protest would have been them form a student union and saying meet our demands or we won’t pay tuition next semester.

As you know, there was always an American flag 🇺🇸 flying in that location till the protestors commandeered the companion flagpole and replaced the GW flag with a giant Palestinian flag which was illegal for several reasons inc. "When flags of two or more nations are displayed, they are to be flown from separate staffs of the same height. The flags should be of approximately equal size."

Fucking FLAG LAW NERDS, the worst kind of nerds.

The flags should be of approximately equal size.

Okay then, so what's up with the 50 foot one on the building?

also that is only applicable to two nations at a time of peace, the U.S. doesn't recognize Palestine as a nation and there sure as hell is no peace in Palestine right now
